Marching to Valhalla : a novel of George Armstrong Custer's final days

No contemporary author portrays the Old West with the vibrancy, authenticity, and drama of Michael Blake. As he demonstrated with his international bestseller, Dances with wolves, Blake transforms the American frontier into a saga as original as it is unforgettable. Now, in Marching to Valhalla, Blake turns his storyteller's eye on George Armstrong Custer, West-Pointer, youngest Union general of the Civil War, horseman, passionate lover, explorer, ardent husband, and most famously, Indian hunter. Custer emerges as a dashing, driven soldier, suspicious of his friends, respectful of his enemies, and ever unable to feel quite alive in the civilian world.

  • "The author of Dances With Wolves turns his creativity and imagination toward America's doomed romantic hero, George Armstrong Custer--the youngest general of the Civil War, trailblazer, Indian hunter, passionate lover, obsessive husband, and tormented, guilt-ridden soul. A wonderful merger of fact and fiction, Marching to Valhalla is soon to be a major motion picture starring Brad Pitt. From the Hardcover edition."@en
  • "The diary of General Custer during the last year of his life in which he reflects on his career, the Civil War and his marriage. Also featured are his views on his Indian enemies who were about to cut the diary short at Little Big Horn.
